  • Enhances user experience by minimizing page reloads.

  • Works seamlessly with technologies like HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.

  • Supports a wide range of data formats, including XML, JSON, HTML, and text files.

• Use Case: Used in applications where small amounts of data need to be exchanged with the server without reloading the entire page. Common in form submissions, search suggestions, and interactive content updates.

• Description: Bootstrap is the most popular HTML, CSS, and JS library for developing responsive and mobile-first projects on the web.

• Key Features:

  • Responsive design with a grid system
